Chapter 44 The Reasons for Her Hatred

Cedric tightened his grip on her wrist, and Natalie stopped struggling.

She looked at him and said, “Tell me, what significance does that place hold for me?”

Cedric narrowed his eyes. In the next moment, he stated firmly, “You know I won’t divorce you.”

The underlying message was clear. Cedric was telling Natalie that since she was aware of this, she

should stop trying to make trouble.

That was the best choice she could make right now.

In the past, Natalie would have complied.

But now, things were different.

was guaranteed!

The two locked eyes. Cedric looked at the defiant woman, his disappointment growing. He thought about

“Do you even know what Verde City is like now? If this continues, you won’t be able to stay here anymore.”

Cedric warned.

That was a fact, especially if she didn’t have him protecting her.

Natalie retorted, “Don’t waste your time worrying about me, Cedric. My presence in Verde City doesn’t

matter. You know that.”
